“Diana made our first experience with Rover incredibly smooth. She was kind enough to meet with us and our 2 kitties before booking and it was a perfect match! They absolutely adored her—we will definitely be reaching out again in the future. If you want a trustworthy, warm, professional sitter who goes above and beyond, Diana is your girl!!”
“Ursula was here to take care of my cats when I'm out for a trip. She followed all the instructions and took good care of my cats. She even went above and beyond to keep my house sparkling clean and tidy. Both of my boys love her and keep showing her love and trust. I'm so glad I found Ursula. She's professional and patient. I will definitely find her again for my next vacations and highly recommend Ursula!”
“Christine is a gem! She went above and beyond to care for our cats while my husband and I were on vacation. She kept us informed and sent photos each visit, giving us ease of mind while away. She even took the liberty of grabbing us litter while away. Our fur babies and I highly recommend Christine! She's attentive, reliable, and friendly.”
“Eliza was just a lifesaver!!! I requested drop-ins pretty last minute and she was able to help me out! I also really appreciated that she’s had a bunch of knowledge & experience with kittens, so I trusted her the most with my kitties & she was definitely the right choice!! If you’re looking for someone who has amazing communication, sends great photos, & loves to give attention to your pets, Eliza is definitely who you’re looking for!!! Thank you again so, so much for your help!!! I would 1000% have Eliza back to help in the future!”
“Yumi and Cody did such a great job caring for our cat Chai. They provided a fun space for our cat to play freely and their home was very spacious and cat friendly. Yumi and Cody stayed in constant communication and responded in a timely manner with me while I was on vacation. I loved how they would send daily photos of Chai playing around in their space and they took the time to play with her as well. 🙂 It was so comforting being on vacation and receiving updates of what our Chai girl was doing. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my cat was having as much fun. I will 100% be booking with them again. They are such great pet sitters. ☺️”
“Charlotte house set and watched my cat for almost 2 weeks while I was out of the country. She was very communicative and kept me well updated with pictures and videos! Also was really flexible with us the day before when my cat had a bit of a medical situation which resulted in her needing a bit of extra attention and medical care while I was away.”
“Maddie is the absolute sweetest and reliable boarder. She replies quick, sends updates, is very accommodating and easy to work with. She took my cat in for a week and Bella absolutely loved her and got comfortable with her immediately. I’m so glad I chose Maddie and will definitely choose her again to look after Bella whenever I need her. 10/10 recommend Maddie for your pet!”
“Karina is super caring and wonderful. She took the time and paid attention to all the details required to befriend my three cats, two of whom are very skittish. She made them all comfortable enough that they are their meals. That may sound small, but several other pet sitter have failed to do this and I've had to return from vacation early more than once! Karina is very special and loves kitties. 😻”
“Amazing cat sitter. Provided our fur babies tons of TLC and love. Also sent many wonderful pictures to us during her stay! We already have Bonnie booked for another stay! Highly recommended her!”
About: I pet sit for cats and dogs in my neighborhood from 10-17 that ranged from all sizes and ages. Since being in college, I have walked many of my professors dogs free of charge—I just love dogs! I believe the greatest thing you can feel is the love from a pet. I am punctual, a great communicator, and will prioritize your pets needs. I am a full time student with a flexible schedule that allows me to make time to walk or visit your pets! I have a car which makes it easier to get to your pet:) I am in a dorm but my college has plenty of outdoor space perfect for walks! In your home I will stick to your pets routine as much as possible to limit their anxiety as well as your anxiety. If your pet enjoys dog parks and interacting with other dogs, I feel comfortable bringing them to the park. I do have a cat at home in Washington State but he doesn’t live with me in Claremont (clarifying that it says I have one cat on my profile).
“Elaine you are an Angel! We came home to a very happy kitty. Little is a shy cat who generally isn’t too trusting and amazingly you got her to play and feel comfortable with you in her space. I know there are other sitters out there but my future sitter will absolutely be you!! Thank you so much, I will recommend you to all of our friends and family.”
“Jillian is amazing! She fed my cat, refilled her water, gave her treats, cleaned her litter box and played with her and gave her lots of love. She seriously goes above and beyond and I’m so grateful I found her on Rover, it’s so nice to know my cat child is being taken care of when I’m away.”
About: I am half way done with my schooling to become a veterinarian and have had 7 years working with animals in a professional setting. My experience and skills can come in handy if your pets need more help (medications, fluids, insulin etc). I also have 2 cats with heart issues myself so I am very familiar with handling special needs pets! My schedule right now allows me to have time for walks and drop in appointments if needed up to 3 times a day at your convenience I currently don’t offer care for pets in my home but in emergency cases, I can easily crate your pet if needed and if your pet is crate trained.
“i couldn’t be happier with the care and attention given to my furbaby. analisa went above and beyond to make sure my pet felt loved and comfortable while we were away. thank you so much for your kindness and dedication!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and had many family pets growing up. I have had experience caring for and walking dogs of various ages and temperaments. I can stay kind, patient, and conscientious every step of the way! I have a very flexible schedule and can adapt on the fly! Let me clear my mind and a bit of your to do list with a brisk or slow stroll with your four legged friend. I show respect to all species and will vow to take the safest and healthiest path each step of the way with your four legged family member. Open to suggestions and areas your pet may need extra attention or time on.

Christine is a gem! She went above and beyond to care for our cats while my husband and I were on vacation. She kept us informed and sent photos each visit, giving us ease of mind while away. She even took the liberty of grabbing us litter while away. Our fur babies and I highly recommend Christine! She's attentive, reliable, and friendly.
Ursula made sure my girls were taken care of to the highest level. She is a cat whisperer, getting even my most standoffish cat’s affection! It felt like I was entrusting my kitties to a close family friend with how nice and friendly Ursula is. She made sure to clean everything up down to the cat dishes and mats, and made sure the girls had a clean environment. She also made sure to tire out my more social kitty and brushed/played with them until they knocked out! She also sends a lot of photos and updates so you always know what is going on with your kitties. I would 100% recommend booking Ursula for your babies and I will be rebooking again! Thank you soooo much again!
Paige took care of our two cats with twice-daily drop-in visits while we were away. She kept us updated with photos during each visit and was patient with our cats and their very different personalities, which helped put our minds at ease. She was easy to work with and made the process very smooth!
Matthew did a great job watching my two senior cats while we were away for 2 weeks. They were not even mad at me this time when we returned. They made little messes here and there and Matt always cleaned it up perfect for us. I highly recommend Matthew as a pet sitter!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
